More Beautiful
The question asked,
" Is there anything more beautiful in life
than a boy and girl
clasping hands and pure hearts in the path of marriage?
Can there be anything more beautiful than young love? "
And the answer given.
"Yes, there is a more beautiful thing.
It is the spectacle of an old man and an old woman
finishing their journey together on that path.
Their hands are gnarled, but still clasped;
their faces are seamed, but still radiant;
their hearts are physically bowed and tired,
but still strong with love and devotion for one another.
Yes there is a more beautiful thing than young love.
Old love."
